Hello,

I've got a question about surface reconstruction with CGAL. I downloaded and
ran the reconstruction demo, but I'm not sure how to modify it for my
situation. There are two differences I need to deal with:

1. I don't have normals for my points. My surface is pretty smooth, so
normal estimation should work, but I couldn't find the documentation that
actually described how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right
direction?

2. I have colors that need to be assigned to each point, so I need to track
the points in some way as they go through the algorithm. I don't entirely
understand the data structures CGAL uses, since I don't have a strong
computer graphics background. How can I deal with this situation?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

- Charlie
